Youse guys can have much more information on Jonathan's family waterfowlers by snooping around the Fox site. This is the only Grade 5 top action eight other than the Dr. Seward Webb gun well described in Larry Baer's books. When we opened the Parker records in 1998, we found that Dr. Webb had ordered three high grade waterfowlers in eight, ten, and twelve gauge, consecutive serial numbers. We thought the Webb guns were the greatest collection of duck guns ever made, until we met Jonathan. Thanks for bringing them out, Jonathan. A PGCA letter is in the works.

Mr. Murphy,

Thank you for your kind words. It was a pleasure meeting you yesterday! I am really looking forward to seeing the letter. I just joined the PGCA and will get the request and check in the mail ASAP.

Thank you again,
Jonathan
